Who can’t wait for the FAME remake? Me! I may not care about a lot of things (sorry!) but one thing I really like is dancing/singing teenagers in crazy outfits. Although the official music video for the title song pales in comparison to the original, I’ll cut these youngters some slack, because it’s hard to imagine that anything could possible compete Irene Cara’s masterpiece. (Well, Michelle Sutlovitch’s classic 1982 performance on Stairway to Stardom comes close.) Anyway, I’m excited. I’ve already got my legwarmers on! The remake comes out on the 25th.

This was the stupidest week. If I have to hear another f*cking word about Kanye West and Taylor Swift I might just have to have an embarrassing freakout tantrum. This includes any joke that starts with “Imma let you finish but…” I don’t care! I didn’t even care at the beginning and now I really don’t care.
Another thing that no one could shut up about this week is the lady who was murdered at Yale. You will notice we’ve yet to weigh in on the subject, because it’s sad and gross but also because I really don’t care very much about it. The only thing I will say is that the alleged murderer isn’t exactly butt-ugly or anything. I mean, I wouldn’t kick him out of bed. Then again, I always thought the Unabomber had a certain something going on too. So don’t go by my opinion.
It was marginally sad when Patrick Swayze died, cause, you know, it’s sad when anyone dies. Death is sad. But since I do not know the man it wasn’t really that sad. Frank loves Dirty Dancing though so I bet he cried clearly canadian tears and still has She’s Like the Wind on repeat. That’s okay too! If you want to care about Patrick Swayze it’s your right as an American/Canadian.
Did ANYTHING else happen this week? Oh yes, President Obama called Kanye– oh f*ck me. Just shut watch this video of a cat. Aw! It’s a cat! Cute!
Oh, and if you haven’t watched this morning’s Tyra Banks interview you should watch that too cause I’m still loling over it.

God bless the creative geniuses of Japan. Without these innovators, think of all the great things we wouldn’t have: tentacle porn, so many kinds of gummy candies, a bunch of Hello Kitty crap, and of course, my favorite: MAID CAFES.
In their neverending quest to bring weird and kind of creepy cuteness to the world, the Japanese have a great new invention: something called MOTION PORTRAITS. Basically you upload a picture of yourself, and it instantly starts blinking and nodding like a crazy sex robot. Then a bunch of balloons start floating by, which you grab to start dressing yourself up in a variety of beards, moustaches, and panda costumes.Makes total sense, right? Whatever, it’s fun! I still don’t really understand it, but who cares! Doesn’t Courtney Love look beautiful with a full beard and moustache? You don’t really get the full effect without the possessed blinking and nodding, so click over to MP CHANGE to give it a try.

I guess the accidental theme for the day is talk show host mimicry: first Tyra blackface, now this! Paula Abdul, my very favorite complete lunatic, did Ellen DeGeneres drag on last night’s VH1 Divas something-or-other. The dancing, the shameless mugging, the Chuck Taylors, etc., etc., etc. As usual Paula is game but seems to be somewhat drunk and on another planet. Just the way I like her!
I do think that dance thing that Ellen is super-annoying does so maybe this will nudge her toward retiring it. (Probs not though.)
